Description

[img=222182 right/] ##Ascent to the Aiguille N de Tré la Tête (3892 m) # 5h from the Conscripts' refuge From the Refuge des Concrits, cross towards the NE, slightly uphill.

Set foot on the Glacier de Tré la Tête around 2900 m and climb up through its centre (still towards the NE) towards the Infranchissable Pass. At the foot of the Tête Carrée, at about 3300 m, take SE and go up the cracked slope of the NW face of the Aiguille N de Tré la Tête.

Reach a flat area around 3600 m. From there, 2 possibilities: - Go up E and cross the rim to reach the N ridge at a small pass.

Follow this ridge on foot to the top (beware of cornices). - Go up to the S and cross the rim around 3700 m to reach the W croup.

Go up the increasingly tapered croup.

Go around rocks on the NW side, then follow the W ridge to the top. ##Descending ####On skis - From the N ridge to the pass, then to the NW side. - Directly from the NW side from a point of your choice on the N or W edge (45-50° at the start). Then descend by the same route, without returning to the Concrits refuge, by the right bank of the Tré la Tête glacier. ####On foot By the same route, or by choosing one of the crossings (that of the other aiguilles de Tré la Tête or towards the Col des Glaciers).<br/><br/>_This Adventure has been shared under the [Creative Commons Share Alike](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/) licence._
